Arc simulations require a coupled solution of the flow and electromagnetic equations. Despite of industrial interest, there is no established simulation framework available yet. We assess the usability of STAR-CCM+ for low voltage circuit breaker simulations using a test case of a model arc chamber, since this toolkit allows to define and control the simulation in a single environment. In spite of a partially implemented arc root model, the results agree well with reference data of previous publications
